National Warplane Museum Chicken BBQ & Corn Roast

Sunday, September 8 2013 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM

On September 8, 2013, National Warplane Museum in Geneseo, NY will be hosting its annual fly-in chicken barbecue and corn roast. This year we are especially excited for this event because at 4pm, we will be drawing the name of the winner of a trip to Normandy for the 70th anniversary celebration of D-Day. This is a highlight of our Return to Normandy 2013 campaign. This campaign features our own C47 aircraft. Whiskey 7, as she is affectionately known as, is a true D-Day veteran. She was the lead aircraft in the second wave of the invasion in Normandy during WWII. This spring, she will be travelling back to her battlefield in honor of those she carried. This is a wonderful opportunity for us all to honor those members of the Greatest Generation!

National Warplane Museum would like to invite you to come down to the airport on September 8, 1pm-4pm, to join in our celebration and to learn more about our Return to Normandy campaign. We will be holding a silent auction during the chicken barbecue, and we have a variety of goods and services for you to bid on. This would be another great opportunity for you to participate in our efforts!
